Course Description
Microsoft 365 Word comes with a collection of templates to provide pre-formatted documents to aid the user in creating standard content. The templates within Word are organized by document type and include letters, reports, resumes, and many more creative document categories. We will learn to use the designer pane to identify format fixes and select a template.
